Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Many Beauties in the Formation

Jin City University, Foreign Language College.

There were many students at the main gate, some returning after breakfast and some locals rushing to classes on foot or by bicycle.

"Hey, Xiao Wan, shall we walk together?"

Just as Tang Xiaowan got out of the car, she was called by Song Jiaqi, who had a big smile on her face and spoke in a sweet voice, just like a good friend reuniting after a long time.

"I bought some siu mai, try them, they’re delicious, with beef jerky and sausage flavors."

Tang Xiaowan shook her head to decline.

"Aren’t you a big fan of siu mai?" Song Jiaqi looked at Tang Xiaowan and then at the siu mai, asking with a puzzled expression.

"I had breakfast early, thanks."

"Oh, I see, well, okay then."

Cheng Shi frowned inside the SUV and slowly rolled down the car window.

He knew about the fake crystals from the Song Family, so he understood a bit about Song Jiaqi’s family situation, and naturally knew the principle of no early riser without profit.

Was this an attempt to curry favor by offering a backdoor deal?

Thinking they could win over my Miss with a few siu mai, what a joke!

Quickly, Tang Xiaowan tapped on the car door twice, and Cheng Shi, as if receiving a command, immediately grabbed the steering wheel and slowly drove away.

"Why did you take a leave yesterday? It’s good you came today. Are you feeling unwell?"

"Do you need something from me?"

Tang Xiaowan asked directly.

Meeting by chance? Impossible!

Exchanging pleasantries? Even more unlikely!

Cheng Shi could think of it, and she certainly did too, and even thought further ahead, guessing it wasn’t for crystals but for the black and white ointment.

"You forgot, today is the last rehearsal. Since you weren’t at school yesterday, I had a classmate stand in for you. Luckily, the instructor didn’t show up."

"The opening ceremony’s college squad?"

"Yeah, you didn’t forget, did you?"

Tang Xiaowan hadn’t forgotten, she just hadn’t cared at all. Even back at Qingcheng University, she only participated in the final games of events like sports meets and not the squad.

Oh my, the instructor still hasn’t changed?

So annoying, what’s there to parade for? It’s not like it’s a model casting show!

Ugh, so many people tomorrow, annoying!

"Thanks, bye."

"Hey, Xiao Wan, don’t run off, wait for me, I still have something to ask you!" Song Jiaqi hurriedly chased after her, shouting as she ran.

With her speed, how could she catch up?

During this sports meet, aside from the cheerleading team, Song Jiaqi didn’t participate in anything.

My god, she really flew!

Who could keep up with that speed?

Having once seen Tang Xiaowan rush back to the classroom, she was reliving the moment now.

Suddenly, Li Ying appeared halfway, grabbed Song Jiaqi, and then asked in confusion, "Qi Qi, what are you doing? Running so early in the morning, aren’t you tired?"

She only saw Song Jiaqi running, not knowing she was chasing Tang Xiaowan.

Thought she was on a diet!

"Last night, I heard Yaoyao say, she applied that... what’s it called, black and white ointment that Tang Xiaowan gave, and the birthmark on her leg seems to be scabbing over, kind of magical."

Song Jiaqi said breathlessly, grabbing the water Li Ying carried and drank.

"Didn’t she just apply it two days ago?"

"Yeah, that’s what I’m saying, so magical!"

Li Ying frowned, "Even if that’s the case, why are you chasing after her? You don’t have any birthmarks to remove. Surely, you’re not planning to use it as a beauty cream, are you?"

"My mom gave me 200, and told me to ask around."

"Your mom told you to ask? She’s not planning to change careers and become a pharmaceutical rep, is she?"

That was said because Jiaqi often complained about her mom, saying she only cared about money and would do any business that made money.

The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart.

Yet, when Li Ying genuinely speculated about her mom like that, Jiaqi felt inexplicably upset and even a bit angry.

"What nonsense, that’s not it at all. My mom is asking for a good sister of hers."

Jiaqi handed a shumai to Li Ying.

That trick worked like a charm—short hands, soft mouths; the suspicion was immediately dispelled.

"I’m just giving you a heads-up, that medicine of hers doesn’t even have a registered trademark. Who knows what sort of sloppy person concocted it. Just don’t use it recklessly."

"My mom said it’s called a ’folk remedy.’"

Li Ying shook her head, "Believe what you will, just wait and see. In a few days, you might find that Yaoyao’s little birthmark has gotten much worse, spread out into a huge patch."

"Why don’t you ever hope for the best? Saying things like that would make Yaoyao feel so sad if she heard you."

"I’m just being realistic, plain and simple."

"Jealousy, that’s what it is. You’re just jealous that Chen Yu got prettier and Yaoyao’s legs are longer than yours. You’re afraid that if her birthmark disappears, she’ll start wearing skirts."

"Don’t smear my name, I’m just being kind with a warning. Plus, do I even need to be jealous?"

"Yes, absolutely!"

And so, they argued all the way to the academic building with only five minutes left before class.

...

Meanwhile, at the Medical College.

Zihan and his follower, Wang Lele, were discussing virus programs, throwing around professional jargon, codes, and ciphers.

Since Wang Lele had joined his secret organization, he had changed entirely, paying more attention to the little details of life, especially dressing and how he spoke in conversations.

"Alright, let’s head in. We can chat more tonight."

"Brother Lee, could that guy have been arranged by your brother? How come he knows our methods so well, always timing it just right, to the second?"

That question had plagued Wang Lele for days, but he had been too afraid to voice it.

He spoke now with a tone of admiration.

"Nonsense, those few lousy companies, my brother wouldn’t consider them significant, not even enough to pick his teeth with. Maybe you didn’t sleep well last night. If not, go home instead."

Sure enough, a rebuke came his way.

Wang Lele grinned sheepishly, scratching his head.

"Oh, I got it wrong. It’s probably cutthroat competition. Someone must be stealing his business. That’s what they show on TV and in the novels, right?"

Zihan nodded, "That’s quite possible, bad luck for him."

"So are we still on for tonight?"

"Of course, it’s a must. He’s done so many bad things in the past, this time we’ll teach him a lesson on how to be a decent person."

"Exactly, we can’t let him off easily. Only because you, Brother Lee, are too soft-hearted, only doing a little each day, even giving him a chance to breathe. If it were me... it’d be over in three days."

As he finished speaking, the bell rang for class.

"Brother Lee, what time is the rehearsal?" Wang Lele suddenly changed the subject, speaking cheerily.

"Right after the first class."

"I really want to check it out too. I heard there are quite a few beauties, many single ones, too. Are all the beauties in our college... selected into the squad?"

"Sure, let’s go."

"Thanks, Brother Lee. I promise not to cause trouble, just watch from the sidelines."
